Julius Evola
About this listen
“In the 20th century, now, and in the forever future, we are unlikely to find a better spiritual guide than the immortal Baron of Sicily.” — James Kirkpatrick
In Pagan Imperialism, Julius Evola presents a fiery critique of the modern world, tracing the decay of Western civilization to its abandonment of its primal pagan roots. Evola condemns the rise of materialism, democracy, and equality, seeing them as signs of European man gone astray. He mourns the loss of the ancient spiritual hierarchy, where gods and warriors reigned supreme, and the cosmos pulsed with mystical energy.
Evola views Christianity as a weakening force that has replaced the proud, heroic spirit of paganism with submission and servitude to an alien deity. He envisions a revival of an empire built on the blood and fire of ancient rites, where the ruler embodies divine authority and the sacred order is restored. Pagan Imperialism is a provocative manifesto for those who dream of a return to a world rooted in the fierce, esoteric traditions of the past.
This new edition of Pagan Imperialism is a brand new translation by Heinrich Matterhorn, combining the original 1928 edition with the 1933 German edition. It also includes Evola’s extensive appendix. This edition is significantly longer than previous English translations and is enriched with detailed footnotes that provide definitions as well as commentary on different concepts and ideas mentioned in the text.

One of the leading exponents of the Hermetic tradition, Julius Evola demonstrates the singularity of subject matter that lies behind the words of all adepts in all ages, showing how alchemy—often misunderstood as primitive chemistry or a mere template for the Jungian process of "individuation"—is nothing less than a universal secret science of human and natural transformation.

The Decline of the West - Volume 1 published in 1917, Volume 2 in 1922 - has exercised and challenged opinion ever since. It was a huge undertaking by Oswald Spengler (1880-1936), formerly an unpublished historian and philosopher who set out to radically reconsider history - the rise and fall of world civilisations and their cultures. His primary view was to reject the established Eurocentric paradigm (ancient/classical, Medieval - and, following the Renaissance - modern) and to take a totally new perspective.

A Handbook for Right-Wing Youth consists of essays selected from throughout Evola’s lifetime, but most especially from the post-war era, when youth across the Western world had thrown their societies into chaos with protests, civil unrest, and by defying conventional mores. According to Evola, the problem was not with the youth themselves, given that he viewed the inquisitive and seeking mentality associated with the young as essential toward opening oneself to the wisdom of tradition.

Through studious research into past civilizations, Burnham diagnoses the 20th century and finds it afflicted with destructive, even "suicidal" tendencies - all of which arise from the “Liberal syndrome” and its inherent applications. The book explores several important questions, including why Liberalism clashes with Christianity and how Liberalism is a root cause of race riots and the rapid growth in crime.

Story
When Orwell went to England in the 30's to find out how industrial workers lived, he not only observed but shared in their experiences. He stayed in cramped, dreary lodgings and subsisted on the scant, cheerless diet of the poor. He went down into the coal mines and walked crouching, as the miners did, through a one- to three-mile passage too low to stand up in. He watched the back-breaking, dangerous labor of men whose net pay then averaged $575 a year.

This book is an exploration of the wisdom in the Viking Age poem "Havamal", specifically as it relates to the average person who isn't a scholar of Old Norse, or even an enthusiast of Viking culture. This book is for the layman, the average person who simply wants to improve their life using proven advice. The poem "Havamal" is earthy, cynical, stoic, and grim in its depiction of human life. Havamal means “The Words of the High One”. The poem's speaker is none other than Odin, King of the Gods, who has traveled the many worlds seeking power and suffered greatly in his quest.

Story
Julius Evola’s The Fall of Spirituality was originally published in Italian as Maschera e volto dello spiritualismo contemporaneo. In it, the Baron critiques the spiritual schools, cults, philosophies, and mystical teachers of the 20th century - from spiritism and theosophy, to parapsychic research and anthroposophism, to psychoanalysis and the Church of Satan - comparing these newer spiritual “systems” to the traditional spiritual path of the ancients and exposing the misunderstandings, misinterpretations, and occult dangers lurking in their practices.

Story
In this fascinating document, one of Japan's best known - and controversial - writers created what might be termed a new literary form. It is new because it combines elements of many existing types of writing, yet in the end, fits into none of them. The road Mishima took to salvation is a highly personal one. Yet here, ultimately, one detects the unmistakable tones of a self transcending the particular and attaining to a poetic vision of the universal.

Story
The Decline of the West - Volume 1 published in 1917, Volume 2 in 1922 - has exercised and challenged opinion ever since. It was a huge undertaking by Oswald Spengler (1880-1936), formerly an unpublished historian and philosopher who set out to radically reconsider history - the rise and fall of world civilisations and their cultures. His primary view was to reject the established Eurocentric paradigm (ancient/classical, Medieval - and, following the Renaissance - modern) and to take a totally new perspective.

On Heroes, Hero-Worship and the Heroic in History

Story
Though uncompromising, polemical and argumentative, Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881) made a lasting impact on 19th-century culture as a multi-talented man of letters. And though his lengthy history of the French Revolution proved his major scholarly legacy, On Heroes, Hero-Worship and the Heroic in History remains perhaps his most popular and accessible work. It presented his deep-seated belief that ‘Universal History, the history of what man has accomplished in this world, is at bottom the History of the Great Men who have worked here’.

Story
In this eye-opening book, Matthew Rose introduces us to one of the most controversial intellectual movements of the 20th century, the "radical right", and discusses its adherents' different attempts to imagine political societies after the death or decline of liberalism. Questioning democracy's most basic norms and practices, these critics rejected ideas about human equality, minority rights, religious toleration, and cultural pluralism not out of implicit biases, but out of explicit principle.

Great book, nearly ruined by Foreword
Aside from the absolutely abysmal foreword and the narration, which is lazy and clunky at best, this is a stellar work from Evola, and an interesting book to contrast against his others. This work has a tone and spirit that is far less detached than his other translated works. There's a sense of urgency, a commanding voice here, starkly contrasted from the aloof and measured prose characteristic of his later works. Pagan Imperialism is a great look into Evola's earlier thought, and is essential to getting a complete understanding of his worldview.
If you're reading this before listening, I HIGHLY recommend just skipping the foreword, as it doesn't just fail to offer anything to the work, but actually detracts from it with the brazen use of unserious internet lingo, which shows that its author either doesn't understand Evola, or doesn't take him seriously. No matter the case, something as important as the foreword to a book should be left to someone who understands the authors ideas AND takes them seriously.
I also have to recommend reading/listening to Evola's other works before attempting Pagan Imperialism, solely because the narrator's pronunciations are sometimes so ridiculously incorrect that if you don't know what he's trying to say (nearly all of the terms in question appear in Evola's other works), it's quite easy to just not understand what the narrator is trying to say at all (example: Airyanem Vaejo). I know many of these terms are difficult and confusing, and i commend the narrator for attempting, but a bit more studying could've resulted in a far more polished end product.
Again I'd like to emphasize that the work itself is spectacular, and you should not let either the narration or the foreword take away from any enjoyment and insight that can be derived therein.
